I'm not sure this is a statement about Hybrids, or more about manufactureres. Toyota and Honda have been generally more relaible than the others in most classes for some time. I am sure they proabbly paid extra attention to their new class of cars to make sure they get it right rather than to loose any chance of gaining market share in the new class.
